“Gina made leaving my dog behind so much easier! Moxy felt right at home the moment she met her. Gina went above and beyond taking care of her- walks, rides, snacks and so much attention, plus she kept me updated the whole time. I cannot express my appreciation enough for Gina and highly recommend her services.”
“Ms Sylvia was very attentive with my little girl, providing me feedback while I was out of town. She left a great impression and I would trust her 100% to board Daisy again.”
“This is our second boarding with Sabrina. She was very well organized and kept us updated with pictures and videos of Kikki through out her stay. She was very prompt in responses as well. Will definitely recommend her with my friends who are looking for boarding for their pets.”
“Denise and her girls were fantastic with my pup Archie. She kept me updated everyday with pictures and videos! She even made homemade treats with her girls for Archie. He got to take a bag home. So happy with Denise, I will definitely be leaving Archie with her again.”

“Linda was so great with our dear Moki lab/husky mix. She sent pictures and updates and I always knew our dog was in the best hands. I would use Linda's services again in a heartbeat!”
“Gabby was a great sitter for my dog. I was very comfortable the whole time I was on vacation. She provided updates with photos and it was great to know that her dog is friendly and got along well with mine. Thank you!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats of various breeds my whole life. My family and neighbors have relied on me to walk as well as feed and water their pets. I have a dog (Duke) and cat (Domino) of my own and am overall well experienced. I have plenty of time to take care of and hangout with your dog(s) and or cat(s)! My availability on the calendar is always updated! I love animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I have a dog who I love more than anything.

About: I've been caring for animals for most of my life, and pets have always been cherished members of my family. Over the years, we've lovingly cared for dogs, cats, birds, fish, turtles, and guinea pigs, giving me experience with a variety of personalities and care needs. As a proud grandma with lots of energy, I understand that every pet deserves love, patience, and individual attention. Whether it's going for walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, keeping a regular feeding schedule, or simply providing companionship, I'll treat your pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in caring hands. Since I'm retired, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Daily walks are already part of my routine, so having a furry friend join me makes them even more enjoyable! I live in a quiet, safe, gated community that's perfect for relaxing walks and exploring new sights and smells. Whether your dog enjoys an energetic stroll, a leisurely walk, or simply spending time with someone who loves animals, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and included in my day. Your dog's safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I'll treat them like family, giving them lots of love, attention, and affection while they're in my care. When pets stay in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. My home has an open floor plan with plenty of space for pets to relax, play, and be part of the family. I also have a securely fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, fresh air, and play. I follow each pet's regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to help them feel at ease and give them the individual attention they deserve. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, loving environment where your pet feels right at home while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're being cared for like one of my own.
“Sherryl was awesome as a sitter with our girl. She sent photos and video each day. Our puppy dog seemed to enjoy her stay and got plenty of exercise and love. I really appreciate that Sherryl only takes one family of dogs at a time. That meant our dog stayed calmer and wasn't stressed with a large number of different dogs coming and going. Thank-you so much for taking such good care of our puppy dog. She will come to visit again.”
“I was planning on taking Lily (4y old labradoodle) into Yosemite on my driving trip, then decided at the last minute to board her. She’s never been boarded before so I was concerned - but connected with Angie through Rover. Angie is clearly a caring dog lover, and I felt very comfortable in leaving Lily there for three nights. All went well. Lily had the run of Angie’s house, slept on a couch, and Angie kept me updated with photos. I have no hesitation in recommending Angie.”
“Emily is by far the best rover sitter (or any dog sitter) we've ever had. She was in great communication with me while we were away, she sent lots of great photos. In the past our dog has been stressed out when return home from a trip but Moke (our dog) was super relaxed and happy. I could tell he had a really awesome time at Emily's house. She is very professional and has a kind spirit. We can't say enough great things about our experience. Thank you Emily!!”
“Stacey and her dad took great care of our dog. They sent us update pictures daily and exercised our mini schnauzer on walks. We will use them again when we return to Yosemite. Cell phone reception is not great in this area. So, we recommend printing out directions or taking screen shots of directions before driving there.”
About: I have had dogs and puppies many times in the past years so I am familiar with the needs of older dogs and puppies. I enjoy walking and taking walks with your dog. I am retired, living in the foothills of Jackson. I can be available to travel to your home, stay in your guest room, and hang out with your pets, or take your small pet at my home. When dogs and I walk I enjoy getting to know the surrounding area. Many times a neighbor will talk to me when we are on our walks! I am retired. Since I am available to travel to your home and stay there with your pets while I enjoy them and the time spent reading and visiting local attractions. Should you wish to use my home for care, I am home a lot while going out for a couple of hours at a time for my social meetings and such. I appreciate that much of the time I spend will be at your home with your pets. If I go out they will be wherever you leave them when you go to work or play. I always make sure they are safe and that I return in time for walks, their next meal and shared evening and sleep routine time.
“Rachele was fantastic! My dog was very comfortable with her and came home tired after hiking and running with Rachele. I will use Rachele any time I have to leave my pup. She is a home away from home for her!”
About: I have always been in love with animals, and so from a young age I have always been the one to help a person babysit there fur babies if needed, and what better way to spend time making money, taking care of different amazing animals. It brings me pure joy!:) I am pretty flexible and could do it any day of the week, but I prefer not to do over nights unless you are gone for long periods of time. I always make sure that other peoples pets are comfortable with me, and have everything that they need, and more. One on one time with the animals are also important to me as the bond clicks faster. I will always make sure everyone’s animals are 100% being taken of with only the best care! And loved!!!!

“Aariah helped me out with a last minute trip I needed to take and I’m so thankful she was available. She was communicative, responsible and let my apartment spotless. She loved on Missy and took such amazing care of her while I was away. Do not hesitate booking with Aariah!”
“Karen was wonderful with our girls. One of them usually hides when new people are in the home, but with Karen she quickly became comfortable! We are very thankful for Karen and knew our girls were in excellent hands while we were gone.”
About: Animals have always been part of my life, and when a dog is around, they truly come first. I’m someone people trust deeply with their animals — creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment is always my top priority. I genuinely love spending time with animals, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. I offer overnight dog stays in the Greater St. Louis area for as many days as you need; providing consistent, attentive, one-on-one care. Whether it’s a rainy wander near your neighborhood or a long weekend hike at a local park, your dog will be well-exercised, engaged, and happily included in my day-to-day life. I love being outdoors in all kinds of weather and come fully prepared with rain and snow gear — because dogs don’t stop having fun just because it’s cold outside! I’ve grown up with animals, raised two dogs of my own, and began animal sitting professionally in 2013. In most places that I have lived I have taken care of animals from Bend, Oregon, Seattle, Washington to Nantucket Island and now here in St. Louis. Although I have not stayed in someone's home here in StL, I did foster three dogs from the Humans Society of the past year. I have also provided extended stays caring for farm animals: two horses, three dogs, two cats, five chickens, and two donkeys. Those multi-week farm stays taught me the importance of multitasking, routine, and especially individualized, one-on-one care. Whether we’re out exploring or snuggling on the couch, I’m attentive to each animal’s needs and routines. I make sure the medicines are taken and the appropriate level of exercise is given depending on age and ability. I strive to provide happy, healthy, and fun care, while always prioritizing safety and comfort. Clear, accessible communication is important to me. While I’m caring for your dog, you can expect photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is doing well and feeling at home. Your dog will be cared for with patience, consistency, and genuine affection — just like one of my own. Dog care is woven into my daily routine, not added on as an afterthought. I work part-time downtown St Louis from 8am-2pm, so I can plan my days around an animal’s needs. Whether it’s a calm early morning walk, an afternoon adventure, or quiet evening time at home, dogs are fully included in my schedule and receive consistent attention throughout the day. My routine allows me to be present, responsive, and focused on keeping your dog happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on providing a safe, calm, and consistent environment that follows the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I take time to follow instructions and ask questions so that I undoubtedly understand each animal’s feeding schedule, walk and exercise needs, medications (if applicable), and comfort preferences. Dogs in my care receive regular walks, outdoor time, play, companionship, and plenty of rest. I have a fenced in yard for off leash play. I prioritize one-on-one attention and never rush care. Whether we’re staying close to home or enjoying time outside, safety and comfort always come first. During overnight or extended stays, I maintain cleanliness, structure, and a relaxed atmosphere so pets feel secure. If I am at your home, it is treated as my own, and I am a particularly clean person. I also value clear communication and provide updates, photos, and notes, so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Not enough words to express how great Trevor is with our pets!!! Our kitty Joy positively loves Trevor! We have an older cat that does come out to say hi to him. Trevor plays with the “girls” a lot. He has such an animal spirit and our girls are so calm when we come home. For 3 days our Joy kitty kept waiting at the window for him to come back!! Trevor takes pictures at “play time” and sends them on to us!!! Very helpful:-) Joy escaped once when Trevor was here. Now, I’m the ONLY ONE she’ll come to and he found her and let her lead him home!! Joy won’t even do that for my husband! If you want peace of mind when you leave for a trip Trevor is the right person. So conscientious and so aware of your animal and its needs. He will be our forever “cat man”. So much appreciation for him.”
About: I am a local pet sitter here in Murphys, CA. I have grown up with cats and dogs all my life. I have several years of pet sitting experience. It all started with a coworker asking me to watch her lovely Golden Retriever, and by word of mouth my clientele grew! It brings me much joy and gratification caring for and spoiling people's pets while they are away. I look forward to meeting you and your wonderful pet(s) soon! :) I work full-time locally in Murphys, CA . My schedule is Mon through Thurs 7:30 AM to 5:15 PM with a lunch hour from 1 to 2 PM. Typically during the work week I can either so a small walk or some playtime and feed pets their breakfast before I leave for work.

After work I enjoy walking dogs and playing with them to get their energy out. :) I typically stay in the client's home with their pets, but that all depends on their preference. I can also do walks and drop in visits.
“I was very nervous leaving my kitty for the 1st time. Charlene came over and met with us and I made me feel very comfortable and less nervous. My kitty is very shy around new people but she seemed to take to Charlene very well. Charlene took really good care of her and sent me regular updates and photos of her so I was able to enjoy my vacation and worry less. I would definitely recommend Charlene and will use her services again if I need to travel again in the future.”
“Brooke did a great job administering medication for our cat and providing us tips. She's calm, gentle, and knowledgeable. The booking and communication back and forth with Brooke was easy.”
“Not only did we have the comfort of knowing our girls were being cared for, we also came home after a long drive to a clean house and fresh sheets and towels. Elora goes above and beyond.”
About: I’ve been trusted with every sort of pet from a tiny lizard to a giant horse. I also have years of experience working in a veterinary hospital and providing care to young and old pets.

“We recently moved to the area and were in need of someone to care for our senior cat. We found Linda and we are so glad we did! She is kind and professional and she takes her job seriously. She took great care of our kitty and even sent us pictures of a kitty that hangs around our property. We are happy knowing we have Linda for any cat care needs in the future.”
About: I’ve trained my German Shepherd from puppyhood, cared for senior large dogs with patience and skill, and successfully trained a small-to-medium puppy for another family. I spend each day surrounded by my dog, two cats, and parakeet, giving them consistent care, attention, and love. I’m passionate about animals and make their well-being, enrichment, and comfort a natural part of my daily routine. I care for pets in their home by following all routines, keeping their environment safe, and providing constant, attentive supervision. I ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and well-loved while you’re away.
“I couldn't be happier with Jef and his time spent with my dog - Jax was clearly happy and content when we got home from our trip. Jef was responsive, flexible when I changed things up a bit, and I absolutely recommend him to other pet owners. I'll be contacting him next time we head out without our pup.”
About: I have always had the responsibility of caring for my own animals, but I love getting to help other people care for their pets. I love meeting new animals and have lots of experience in this area. I have been walking dogs around my neighborhood since I was about 10 years old. I loved this experience which is why I have decided to dedicate myself to this line of work so I can always be available to help an animal in need. Currently I work an evening shift at a restaurant 4 nights a week so I have the day open before 5 pm Friday through Monday and Tuesday Wednesday Thursday I am completely available. My schedule also will be opening up more soon. I have a very large area for dogs to run around and two very friendly dogs of my own. I always start by making sure the space is free of any hazards, like toxic plants or loose wires and that they have a cozy spot just for them. Building trust is key, so I take things slow, using positive reinforcement like treats and praise to create a bond. Whether it's playtime or just chilling, I'm all about keeping their routine consistent to minimize stress.
About: I have had many years of housesitting experience with came with caring for pets. I have also worked at a pet store and handled bathing dogs.

I take into account their feeding schedule and any medicine they may need.
“Sabrina took great care of my fur baby! I was a little nervous leaving my kitty with a stranger because she seemed a little nervous with new people. But she warmed up to Sabrina so quickly and now has new friends to babysit her! I would definitely have Sabrina watch my baby again. She takes wonderful pictures and videos! I recommend her for any fur baby in need of a friend! ❤️”

About: Between growing up with cats and dogs, a parrot, horses, rabbits, and a tortoise, working with dogs in 4-H, showing my dog at the fair in the highest level of obedience, loving and caring for puppies, senior, blind, and deaf dogs, pet sitting for my neighbors and community members growing up, and working with clients through Rover doing drop in visits for walks, play time, feeds, and overnight house sits as well, I've become a well rounded animal caretaker and lover. Back at home after 9 months of traveling Asia, I am currently a free bird when it comes to scheduling, so please reach out with any requests for assistance meeting your pet care needs. With much TLC, tender loving care is how I care for pets. Additionally, I love for animals to be outside and so do I. My old dog and I used to go on so many hikes and swim in all of the creeks, having so much fun playing in the mountains. Despite enjoying dogs free of leashes, when I am walking dogs, I like to walk them on-leash as risk management to prevent unpredictable bad situations from arising.
“Very impressed how Linda treated Oscar my Maltese with full attention that made my husband and I feel good about leaving Oscar. Now we don’t need to worry the next time we go for a long vacation. We finally found someone we fully trust and take care of our baby like family. My dog also learned how to ring the bell when he needs to go out. Linda doesn’t only took care of our Oscar but also trained him something he can do that we were not aware about . Kudos to Linda.”

“Emily watched my dog Prince while my family and I went to the lake at Twain Harte. She was amazing! The original time I had proposed didn't work, but she was very accommodating for a later drop off time. Thanks to her my family and I were able to go to the lake (where there are no dog allowed), and I had peace of mind the whole time. Thank you, Emily!”
“Excellent! Tallulah was out like a light for the rest of the evening. Sabrina was very caring and kept me posted all day. Her visits will definitely be a regular thing. ❤️”
About: Hi, I grew up around several different animals of all sizes from rodents/reptiles to livestock/dogs. I have always had at least one dog in my life at all times. The more the merrier. I love all animals big and small. I worked at a kennel where I learned about boarding and training dogs for about a year and I have pet sat for about 15 years in grand total. I currently work at a pet store in Sutter Creek. I love being around dogs and training or even just hanging out and playing. I am a outdoorsy person. I have experience with livestock animals also. Horses, cattle, chickens, Lhamas, mini animals, donkeys. I have references also if you would like them. Our home is completely fenced and sits on 3 acres. We have two friendly german shepherds. I work part time so some days I am gone at work. But our 17 year old daughter is always home. We also go to church Sunday morning so we would be gone for a couple hours but otherwise we are always home. I care for pets in my home as I would my own. I have 3 German Shepherds. 10 months to 7 years old. As for in home pet sitting I would follow whatever routine you have set for your fur babies already so it would be easier on them.
“We are SO lucky to have found Stacey!! She is very quick to response, send tons of great pics, and is flexible (which was really helpful when I kept getting lost trying to exit Yosemite Park haha). She has a very sweet gentle energy, which made Miko comfortable right away. Her pups were friendly and gentle with my little 10lb chorkie. I could tell Miko was entertained & stimulated meeting new friends and seeing all the beautiful land around Stacey’s place, and he also looked very cozy. Miko was happy and clean when I picked him up, and Stacey even gave him a little gift. She went above and beyond, and I am so grateful my baby was in such great hands. Thank you Stacey!!”

About: As an animal lover and caretaker over the past 40 years, I have experience raising dogs through all ages of life from puppies to seniors & deaf dogs, as well as cats, and farm animals. This love for animals began even before I was a high school 4-H and FFA student working with large farm animals, growing up with cats and dogs. As a pet-sitter for others, I have cared for many kinds of animals in addition to cats and dogs. I was the Dog Leader for the Murphys 4-H for 7 years and assisted the kids in training their dogs to show at the fair. While I have experience training animals, I also love to offer them tender loving care, spending quality time with them, and being their friend. It is important to me that dogs and humans both enjoy play and joy in their days, so I am happy to offer this for your pets when you cannot be there. I currently have a very open schedule, so I am most available to meet your pet care needs. Reach out to schedule a meet and greet at your convenience. When caring for pets as a sitter, I respect both your space and your pets. While I am walking others' dogs, I feel best with on-leash walks, and I will clean up after them. I also always provide animals with fresh clean water during my visits and routine caretaking. I like to keep the home and pets clean, safe, and comfortable while you are away.
About: I have been owned by cats and dogs in the past. I recently transferred with my job from the East Coast to Utah, and now reside in Northern California and currently frequent the Humane Society to visit with the cats and dogs waiting for homes. Pet Sitting - I am able to walk them/feed in the mornings and after 5 p.m. Monday-Wednesday and Thursday - Sundays more frequently. I do prefer overnight pet sitting. I am reliable, responsible and have a "knack" with most pets. I do need to know about any behavioral issues (likes to chew on things that aren't their toys for example). Do they do well with new people? I prefer not to sit pit bull terriers, but mixed breeds I don't have a problem with.

About: Hey there I’m Elora :D I was raised with both cats and dogs of all sizes/ages/personalities and have been house sitting for the past 5 years as a side gig. I am new to Rover trying to expand my clientele! When pet sitting, I aim to stay as close to your dog's schedule as possible, and spend every free moment I have with your animals at home! I love walking around local parks and sending photos of our adventures! House sitting extends beyond just caring for the pets so I also bring in mail, take out trash, water plants, etc. I’m a recent college grad looking to spend my time taking care of animals, as this brings me the most joy. I don’t have any pets of my own at the moment, so rest assured your animals will be spoiled. I am available weekdays, weekends, and holidays! I have my own car providing easy and reliable transportation to your home, grooming appts, and emergency vet visits if needed. I have the utmost respect for your home and privacy. I will always leave your home looking better than how I found it. Punctuality and communication are my key pillars.
About: Growing up with animals my entire life, I've branched out to caring for other's animals. From dogs, cats, snakes, and aquariums of all sizes, I am familiar with caring for all kinds of animals including those with special needs. I have worked with blind animals, those with complex medication routines, and those that needed physical therapy. I have also assisted in training animals with behavioral issues and prevented damage to homes while per owners are away. I also volunteer for the local FOAC in my free time. I'm a full time animal lover and would love the opportunity to take care of your furry family! I work full time but have the ability to work from home. I am especially available on weekends, evenings, and holidays. Simply book me and I'll make your schedule work for mine! I have stayed in homes for months at a time caring for animals while owners are on vacation. I am sure to be respectful of your privacy, sticking to specified areas, and focusing on my assigned job of caring for your furry family members. I prefer to leave everything clean and untouched after pet sitting, like I was never there. I am also very quiet with hobbies like crocheting and reading, being respectful of any surrounding neighbors.

About: I was raised on a ranch with all kinds of pets. I can't recall life without dogs we are so fortunate to have them in our lives they are unconditional in the love and affection they give . I was in dog rescue for 21 years as a foster. I had 7 dogs all were what was considered not able to be put in a home do to behavior issues the only option for these dogs was to be euthanized so I kept the rejects and had to stop rescue as to the inn was full and I still dog sat for the dogs that had been at my home until a new home was found . I have extensive experience with all types of dogs . I have a cat who pretends dogs do not exist so she just stays away, my cat was a ferel rescue cat and is now a fat and sassy house cat . I have a large home so have part of it sectioned off where her litter box and food are to keep dogs out of both . If I house sit I have experience with farm animals for feeding. I garden so watering is in my range. I'm home 80% of the time so I'm available. I may run a errand but that's about it . If weather permits and you have a road dog car rides with me are perfect. I spend a lot of my time cooking and blogging I cook for seniors in my community. If I'm gardening outside the dogs are welcome to be with me. I have a double lot so plenty of play room . Half of it is fenced for plenty of play room . I have a crate if needed . Your dog will have free roaming access in my home and allowed on the furniture . If I'm sitting your pet in your home it's your home and your rules that I follow . I have passed my Background check here on Rover to take care of your fur babies. I have passed my 2nd Government Background check to take care of children. I have passed my 3rd Goverment Background check to take care of elders . The point is I want you to be assured your fur babies are safe with me .
“As reluctant as I was to allow a stranger to come into my home, I was that much more hesitant to allow a stranger to walk my three dogs, in the end I knew I had no other choice but to hire someone due to my work schedule. While searching I came across Jef’s profile and I decided to go with him in booking dog walking for my three dogs. Jef even came to meet my dogs before he was to begin walking them the following day. From the initial message to the first time meeting, Jef maintained great communication and updated me each day after their walks. Jef definitely has something about him that made my dogs very comfortable around him. He quickly gained their trust and vice versa. Jef is also very persistent and knowledgeable in training dogs and helping to improve any bad leash habits. I will definitely be booking Jef for any future needs and I would definitely recommend him to anyone with pets.”
About: I’ve trained my German Shepherd from puppyhood, cared for senior large dogs with patience and skill, and successfully trained a small-to-medium puppy for another family. I spend each day surrounded by my dog, two cats, and parakeet, giving them consistent care, attention, and love. I’m passionate about animals and make their well-being, enrichment, and comfort a natural part of my daily routine. I care for pets in their home by following all routines, keeping their environment safe, and providing constant, attentive supervision. I ensure they feel comfortable, secure, and well-loved while you’re away.
About: I have always had the responsibility of caring for my own animals, but I love getting to help other people care for their pets. I love meeting new animals and have lots of experience in this area. I have been walking dogs around my neighborhood since I was about 10 years old. I loved this experience which is why I have decided to dedicate myself to this line of work so I can always be available to help an animal in need. Currently I work an evening shift at a restaurant 4 nights a week so I have the day open before 5 pm Friday through Monday and Tuesday Wednesday Thursday I am completely available. My schedule also will be opening up more soon. I have a very large area for dogs to run around and two very friendly dogs of my own. I always start by making sure the space is free of any hazards, like toxic plants or loose wires and that they have a cozy spot just for them. Building trust is key, so I take things slow, using positive reinforcement like treats and praise to create a bond. Whether it's playtime or just chilling, I'm all about keeping their routine consistent to minimize stress.

I take into account their feeding schedule and any medicine they may need.

“Gina made leaving my dog behind so much easier! Moxy felt right at home the moment she met her. Gina went above and beyond taking care of her- walks, rides, snacks and so much attention, plus she kept me updated the whole time. I cannot express my appreciation enough for Gina and highly recommend her services.”

About: I've been caring for animals for most of my life, and pets have always been cherished members of my family. Over the years, we've lovingly cared for dogs, cats, birds, fish, turtles, and guinea pigs, giving me experience with a variety of personalities and care needs. As a proud grandma with lots of energy, I understand that every pet deserves love, patience, and individual attention. Whether it's going for walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, keeping a regular feeding schedule, or simply providing companionship, I'll treat your pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in caring hands. Since I'm retired, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Daily walks are already part of my routine, so having a furry friend join me makes them even more enjoyable! I live in a quiet, safe, gated community that's perfect for relaxing walks and exploring new sights and smells. Whether your dog enjoys an energetic stroll, a leisurely walk, or simply spending time with someone who loves animals, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and included in my day. Your dog's safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I'll treat them like family, giving them lots of love, attention, and affection while they're in my care. When pets stay in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. My home has an open floor plan with plenty of space for pets to relax, play, and be part of the family. I also have a securely fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, fresh air, and play. I follow each pet's regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to help them feel at ease and give them the individual attention they deserve. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, loving environment where your pet feels right at home while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're being cared for like one of my own.
“I was planning on taking Lily (4y old labradoodle) into Yosemite on my driving trip, then decided at the last minute to board her. She’s never been boarded before so I was concerned - but connected with Angie through Rover. Angie is clearly a caring dog lover, and I felt very comfortable in leaving Lily there for three nights. All went well. Lily had the run of Angie’s house, slept on a couch, and Angie kept me updated with photos. I have no hesitation in recommending Angie.”
“Emily is by far the best rover sitter (or any dog sitter) we've ever had. She was in great communication with me while we were away, she sent lots of great photos. In the past our dog has been stressed out when return home from a trip but Moke (our dog) was super relaxed and happy. I could tell he had a really awesome time at Emily's house. She is very professional and has a kind spirit. We can't say enough great things about our experience. Thank you Emily!!”
“Rachele was fantastic! My dog was very comfortable with her and came home tired after hiking and running with Rachele. I will use Rachele any time I have to leave my pup. She is a home away from home for her!”
About: I have always been in love with animals, and so from a young age I have always been the one to help a person babysit there fur babies if needed, and what better way to spend time making money, taking care of different amazing animals. It brings me pure joy!:) I am pretty flexible and could do it any day of the week, but I prefer not to do over nights unless you are gone for long periods of time. I always make sure that other peoples pets are comfortable with me, and have everything that they need, and more. One on one time with the animals are also important to me as the bond clicks faster. I will always make sure everyone’s animals are 100% being taken of with only the best care! And loved!!!!
“Kinny was really great with Tony. It was his first time away from home without us and I don’t think he wanted to leave. He had so much fun with Aubi, Kinny’s dog. He was super comfortable and happy. Kinny sent lots of updates and pics, which made me very happy. We will definitely have him stay at Kinny’s again in the future.”
